Initng

initng is the program under Unix which launches all the other tasks. It is carried out like a data-processing demon and typically it has a Identifiant of process (PID) of 1.

Contrary to Init, initng automatically determines the dependences between each demon, and parallels startings of the demons.

This largely accelerates the starting of a distribution Linux. On the other hand, initng is not compatible with the process of starting of UNIX System V because there is no more script to start each demon, but a file of configuration.
